Martha Cooley said this quote

“ In a few minutes I heard the books' voices: a low, steady, unsupressible hum. I'd heard it many times before. I've always had a finely tuned ear for a library's accumulations of echo and desire. Libraries are anything but hushed. ”

My task was to imagine God in return: this was all He and I owed each other.
